The Effect of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy on Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The shock wave is a new and potential intervention for the reinnervation of peripheral nerve. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of extracorporeal shock wave therapy on carpal tunnel syndrome.

Clinical Trial Description

Recently, many studies show the potential effect of shock wave for the reinnervation for peripheral neuropathy in the animal mode. Only one study reveal the potential benefit of shock wave in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome. Althouh its expressive finding, the number of cases is relatively too small to make a conclusive remark. Large and well-designed study would expand the new field. ;
